Hours before passing away, Ozzy Osbourne made his last social media post talking about “going back to the beginning.”
Ozzy Osbourne made a heartfelt post on his social media hours before his sudden death.
The vocalist and founder of Black Sabbath died on Tuesday, July 22, at the age of 76. Osbourne’s death occurred weeks after he performed his farewell show alongside the original founding members of the iconic heavy metal band.
Besides music, Osbourne also shone on television starring in the MTV show “The Osbournes,” which followed his domestic life with his wife Sharon and their children Kelly and Jack.
The reality show, which premiered in 2002, quickly became a hit, showing the more personal and relaxed side of the “Prince of Darkness.”
One of rock’s most influential vocalists, Osbourne had been facing increasing health problems since his Parkinson’s diagnosis in 2003.
In his last post, made on Instagram just one day before his death, Osbourne shared an image of a long corridor and a sign showing him and his Sabbath bandmates Tony Iommi, Bill Ward, and Geezer Butler, alongside the words “Back to the beginning – the final show.”
After the sad news of his passing, the post has been taken by fans as a farewell and flooded with messages.
“Thank you for being such an important part of my childhood. We will miss you so much. Love you, Ozzy,” wrote one.
“The Prince of Darkness forever,” said another.
“Thank you, Ozzy. We walked through life together, and it was beautiful. It’s still beautiful now – just in a different way. One day, we’ll meet again among the stars, and you’ll play a concert there for me…,” thanked a third.
